With Secom's ticket acceptor all credit card verification is processed at the central system server - only one phone connection is needed for credit card processing, no matter how many exit lanes!

Now you can determine the best time to send the cashier home. You will be back in control of your garage with this easy-to-use ticket acceptor, maintaining full revenue and lane monitoring activity.
